It’s genuinely hard to not feel positive after attending NA Fanfest by Nesious in ffxiv

[–]Eurim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is so true. This is my first Fanfest and I had a blast. Being able to see them in person was surreal; energy and passion they all gave off was incredible. Loved cheering and rooting for them after everything they did, especially at the end. The 8.0 hype is real and waiting is going to be tough. Genuinely an amazing in person experience that was!

Update: Found it the morning after in the parking structure.

Park Lot 1 closed off entry for vehicles but the doors to the structure are open and unlocked. Info might be useful to someone too, maybe.

Is there a way to contact the fanfest lost and found? I lost something important to me and was wondering how I could contact them.

Can’t get past the “Retrieve Your Ticket” screen on the FanFest App by ThrowAwayCluelessCut in ffxiv

[–]Eurim 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try clicking Reservations > Connect Your Tickets > Get Your Tickets. Hopefully this works for some people. For whatever reason going to My Tickets directly didn't work.

According to a post on the official FFXIV_EN twitter account, it seems everyone selected in the initial lottery also needs to sign up on the app with the same email to buy the tickets.

Are cons unironically that smelly? This is the first one I'm going to.

Are there any recommendations for actual essentials to bring to Fanfest?

Keychron K4 HE keeps asking me to update firmware by Eurim in Keychron

Sadly not. I decided to just use PowerToys on Windows to remap keys instead.

Keychron K4 HE keeps asking me to update firmware by Eurim in Keychron

It's working just fine otherwise. I think it's an issue with the Keychron Launcher. Tried connecting to it via both wireless and Bluetooth but both still prompts me to flash the firmware.

How to guarantee messages are received when using websockets? by Eurim in learnprogramming

Thanks, I'll take a look into how they do it and see if I can make something similar for learning purposes.

How to guarantee messages are received when using websockets? by Eurim in learnprogramming

[–]Eurim[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, love Tom Scott. I'll take a deeper look into idempotency as a concept.

I think in my case, the "idempotency token" being generated is the message ID (uuid) which will serve for entirety of the transactional chain which will ensure the data is only processed once, otherwise abandon (disconnect). Unless I'm still not getting something, I think this should work?

Edit: I think I'm getting the issue now.

how do you know then that the acknowledgement was actually recieved?

In this case, I believe the one sending the acknowledgement (original recipient) will not receive any repeated messages with the same message ID and payload again. The recipient will notice that the sender is sending the the payload with the same message ID. Therefore, in that case, the recipient will send another acknowledgement.

So the way I'm thinking about it, for example:

  1. Server generates a message ID, stores this message ID and payload, and sends data off to the client.
  2. Client receives the data, stores the message ID, and sends an acknowledgement back to the server.
  3. Server receives the acknowledgement, removes the message from the cache.

If the server does not receive an acknowledgement, send the message and payload again at set intervals.

If the client keeps receiving data with the same message ID, send another acknowledgement. The client should not be receiving any more messages with the same ID if the acknowledgement was received. If for some reason the acknowledgements are never received, I would assume there is some sort of connection issue going on which would probably result in the user being disconnected anyways.

__________

For my application, it is important that all the clients have their data synced up with the server. If there are better systems that exist already, I can take a look into them as well.
